Anton Baranov-Classical Guitarist, Russian

 

As winner of the 2013 Guitar Foundation of America Competition and more than 20 other prestigious contests around the globe, Russian guitarist Anton Baranov has established himself as one of the leading guitarists of today.

 

His performances in a number of distinguished halls such as Carnegie Hall in New York, Palau de Musica in Valencia, Mariinsky Concert Hall in St. Petersburg, and Hakuju Hall in Tokyo have been described by musical critics as “pure magic” (Cleveland Classical), and “manages to paint beautiful sound pictures of rich depth and color with his guitar.” (The Guitar).

 

Known for Baranov's daring interpretations and innovative programms, world renown guitarist and composer Roland Dyens called him, “...a real misician, one of those rare guitarists who are able to have their attendees almost forget the instrument they play, managing to have them focus on the expressivity of the music and only this.”

 

Baranov's recordings includes one album for Naxos Classical and a CD for Contrastes Records. Naxos released Latin American Guitar Sonatas in May 2014. His Contrastes Records album consists of Spanish guitar music and it's on the market since August 2014.

 

Anton Baranov was born in 1984 and started playing guitar at the age of ten. He completed his musical education at the oldest and most famous Russian school of music, the Saint-Petersburg State Rimsky-Korsakov Conservatory, where he has had a teaching position since his graduation in 2010. Mr. Baranov has been a D' Addario artist since 2013 and plays Max Cuker double-top guitar.

［关于“弦－139”

ABOUT STRING-139］

 

1723年，作为一名虔诚的基督教徒的巴赫在莱比锡的圣托马斯教堂工作，为其信仰的上帝创作乐曲。巴赫认为，音乐是上帝赐予的圣物，是与上帝对话，通往天堂的云梯。从而坚持每周为上帝创作一组赞美感恩的乐曲，并教授给唱诗班在星期日礼拜和定期的弥撒仪式上唱颂。巴赫希望通过这种反复却不重复的创作来表达对上帝的爱。次年的冬天，巴赫完成了他的第139号赞美诗合唱组曲＂信上帝，得福报＂（Wohl dem, der sich auf seinen Gott，BWV 139）。这首组曲的名字完美地诠释了巴赫怀揣纯粹信仰的一生。

在音乐形式不断翻陈出新的今天，人们对信仰和坚持的崇尚从未停止过。当时尚演变成了古典，坚持蜕变成了伟大，经典如同一面镜子，让人们可以停下脚步，面对真实的自己。

 

今天的谁人音乐工作室（www.guitarw.com），感悟于大师对信仰的执着，在古典音乐中不断追寻着自己的梦想。我们会邀请全球上百位与我们同样秉持着对古典音乐的热爱的弦乐演奏大师，用139组风格迥异的古典弦乐演出来诠释我们自己的音乐信仰，让同样怀揣古典音乐信仰的你，与我们一起用心去触摸空气中流动的音符，在琴弦的颤动中寻找只属于自己的波动，去拥抱那份坚守。

这是真正意义上的随心而至，以139组演出，献给生活中每一个流动的瞬间，去体会每一场平凡的盛宴。

 

In 1723, J.S. Bach was a Kantor at the St. Thomas Church, Leipzig. It was part of his job to perform a church cantata every Sunday and Holiday, related to the readings prescribed by the Lutheran liturgy for the specific occasion. As a true Christian, Bach preferred to conduct his own cantatas, and he composed a new work every week as part of the church service. Three annual cycles of cantatas have survived.

 

Bach said, "Music's only purpose should be the glory of God and the recreation of the human spirit." On November 12, 1724, Bach finished his No.139 sacred Cantata "Believe in God, God Blesses" (Wohl dem, der sich auf seinen Gott，BWV 139). The name of this Cantata has perfectly described Bach's pure belief and his commitment in accordance with his belief: a Church Musician.

Although music nowadays has more purposes than just for the glory of God, people have never stopped the searching journey for the true meaning of life, and never stopped praising the spirit of commitment. As time passes by, fashion may have changed into old classy, while humble insistence may have turned out to be great achievements. The classical works, like a mirror from the past, provide those busy persons a true reflection of who they really are.

The aim of GuitarW Music Workshop (www.guitarw.com) is to fulfill its musical dreams in the classical string music world. Inspired by Bach's commitment to his pure belief, we will present 139 concerts where hundreds of well-known musicians from all over the world will perform in different styles. If you are the person who has the same belief in classical music, please join us. Let's experience the every note of each classy piece, and take a deep breath for a moment, allowing your mind floating in the ocean of melody.
